At Emma Chapman jewels, we are committed to creating jewellery that reflects beauty, craftsmanship, precision and artistry. One of the elements of our jewellery-making process is the stone-cutting technique – a special art that allows us to create unique, one-of-a-kind pieces. What makes our jewellery truly special is that many of the gemstones we use are cut precisely for our designs, often in intricate shapes and patterns that perfectly complement each piece.
Our stone-cutting process takes place in the vibrant city of Jaipur, India, a place steeped in the heritage of gemstone cutting. Jaipur, with its world-renowned expertise, is the perfect location for our stone-cutting workshops. Here, we employ special techniques to create our bespoke pieces, connecting our brand to the rich tradition of Jaipur’s craftsmanship.
Jaipur: The Heart of Stone Cutting Excellence
The Indian city of Jaipur has a long and rich history of gemstone cutting. For centuries, it has been home to some of the world’s most skilled craftsmen, who have passed on their expertise from generation to generation. Jaipur is known worldwide as a hub of stone cutting, with our workshops producing the finest gemstones that are sought after by jewellers, collectors and designers from around the world. We chose Jaipur for its unmatched craftsmanship, expertise and tradition in the art of stone cutting, and the city is the perfect place to bring our designs to life.
The Cutting Process: From Raw Gemstone To Stunning Jewellery
The process of stone cutting at our workshops in Jaipur is both an art and a science. Here is a step-by-step process of how we transform raw gemstones into stunning jewellery –
Selecting The Stone
The stone-cutting process begins with the meticulous selection of the raw gems. We collaborate with our trusted suppliers to source the finest gems, evaluating each based on its colour, clarity, and cutting ability. Every stone, regardless of its type, is handpicked for its unique beauty, ensuring that only the highest quality gemstones make it into our jewellery.
Cutting The Gemstone
Once the right stone is chosen, the cutting process begins. Our skilled craftsmen use special tools and equipment to cut the stone into the desired shape. Different cutting techniques are adopted depending on the type of stone and its intended use.
Polishing And Refining
After the stone is cut, the polishing stage begins, where the stone is polished to bring out its natural shine. The polishing process requires a lot of skill to ensure that the stone retains its clarity and lustre. This stage ensures that the gemstone continues to shine and catch the light, which makes it a stunning focal point in the jewellery.
Setting The Stone
Once the stone is cut and polished, it is ready to be set in jewellery. At Emma Chapman jewels, we specialise in creating bespoke settings to suit each gemstone’s unique shape and size. Our designers and stone cutters work closely with our stone cutters to ensure that the setting enhances the beauty of the stone, making it a perfect fit for the design.
